Big Finds In Creswick?

[Leroy]

Within 5Ks of Creswick, 2 nuggets detected, both half the size of a Mans hand and both over 100 OZ,s. No further details as yet but maybe someone on the forum might know more.

Must have been a bloody big hand?

With a 6K as legend has it lol

I'm thinking this should read 100 grams, as this is one 100 oz nugget - clearly bigger than 2 women's full hands!

The volume of 100 grams of gold is only 1900 cubic centimetres - this is clearly more than that. 30 oz would be a bit under a kilogram (approx 900 gram). Not all that large. This is a 1400 gram nugget, say 45 ounce - easily fits in one hand

Trying to get photos so cant verify actual size of nuggets until I can get more info, personal friends are parents of finder so its genuine. Scales showed a 137 with both nuggets on the, scales couldnt see a decimal point but a couple of numbers followed the 137 maybe it was around 137 ozs or grams as some suggested. Ill try and get a shot but its still a good find.

You might have it there Damit, I will confirm it though, I was a bit out but 12 OZS isnt bad for 2 lumps

It can't be Dam it. Everybody knows the Gpx series stopped finding gold the exact moment the Z was released :lol:

 

[Leroy]

Yes Dam it thats the one I was told about and they were found with a GPX 5000, I cant say what coil but I will try and find out.
